Hello Everyone!
I'm Axnly, the writer behind this story titled 
"In Bloom We Begin"

In the tranquil coastal town of Evermere, where the sea whispers secrets to the shore, Elara  Aurora Quinn tends to her flower shop and the quiet wounds of a heart once broken. Her life is peaceful, orderly-and utterly predictable. Until a mysterious traveler steps through her door.

Kai Philip Thorne, a world-weary photojournalist with a haunted past, is just passing through-or so he says. But Evermere has a way of holding onto people, and Elara's warmth begins to thaw the parts of Kai he long thought frozen.

What begins as a simple request for flowers unfolds into something deeper: a journey of healing, vulnerability, and love that neither of them expected. As their lives entwine, secrets surface, choices must be made, and love is tested in the face of truth and time.

With 100 heartfelt chapters of slow-burn romance, emotional revelations, and unforgettable characters, In Bloom We Begin is a sweeping story of second chances, the fragility of trust, and the enduring power of love.All Rights Reserved

A Touch of Forever by elsathewriter21

Enemies, lovers, soulmates. This is not a fairy tale. This is a storm they chose to survive together. Elara never asked to fall for a prince - especially not that prince. Cold, calculating, and entirely too handsome for her peace of mind, Sebastian was everything Elara had trained herself to avoid. But fate, politics, and palace walls had other plans. What began as barbed words and stolen glances soon turned into secret texts, shared silences, and a kiss that rewrote everything. Through masquerade balls, media storms, and a jealous ex with a vengeance, Elara and Sebastian's love is tested at every turn - until one final act of violence threatens to shatter them forever. But some love survives the fire. Some hearts are stubborn enough to beat again. And for Elara and Sebastian, forever isn't a fairy tale. It's a choice - and they make it every single day.

The Space Between The Shadows by Fayel5238

Blurb: Elara has spent her entire life watching him from the sidelines: Kael, her father's best friend, the man who was a constant, steady presence in their home. To her, he was the embodiment of everything strong and safe. But the summer she turns eighteen, something shifts. The childhood crush she thought she'd outgrown transforms into a dizzying, all-consuming attraction that leaves her breathless. Kael has known Elara since she was a baby. He's the honorary uncle, the man who helped her learn to ride a bike, who teased her about her first crush. But as the girl blossoms into a captivating young woman, his protective affection curdles into something darker, something possessive. He knows it's wrong, a line that can never be crossed, but the obsession takes root, poisoning his every thought. Trapped in the gilded cage of their small town's expectations and the unbreakable bond between her father and his best friend, Elara navigates the thrilling yet terrifying waters of first love, unaware that the object of her affection is not just drawn to her, but utterly obsessed. The Space Between Shadows is a tense, emotional exploration of forbidden desire, the illusion of safety, and the devastating cost of crossing a line that should never be approached.

Ashes To The Tides by jacopsj

Elara has always known one truth: if anyone discovers what the water does for her, she will be hunted. Witches without covens don't survive long. Witches with rare gifts don't survive at all. When Elara is brought aboard the Obsidian Reaver, a ship feared across every charted sea. Its crew is made of wolf-blooded warriors, sharp-eyed vampires, and outcasts bound together by something fiercer than loyalty. They are everything she should fear. Yet they are the first ones who don't look at her like a tool or a threat. They protect her. Defend her. Some watch her too closely... especially Yuno, whose quiet warmth pulls at her in ways she cannot risk. But the sea is shifting. Her magic is growing. And something old, older than witches, older than bloodlines, is stirring under her skin, demanding to be seen. If anyone discovers it, she will become a target. A prize. A hunted thing. The Reavers would fight for her. Yuno would bleed for her. But as ancient tomes whisper of forgotten powers and sealed paths, Elara begins to fear a truth darker than any enemy ship: She cannot hide what she is becoming. And the moment she loses control... the world will come for her.

Asymptomatic by lei_ezli

Elara, one of the few diagnosed carriers, has lived in emotional and physical isolation for most of her life. Ruin, a trauma medic with secrets of his own, is drawn to Elara when they're both recruited into a remote medical rehabilitation center. As their bond deepens, so does the danger-because falling for someone you're not allowed to touch? That's how you get hurt. Or worse... disappear. But the real plot twist? Elara might not be the only one who's been kept in the dark.

When Elara, a reclusive human scribe and linguistic scholar, is hired to translate the lost language of the grimoire, she doesn't realize she's breaking the final seal. Now, Kael is free-but his curse binds him to her. She's the only one who can hear his voice without dying, and the only one who can write the words that might unbind them both. Every word he speaks through her ink burns with power-and temptation.
